Spring...To Be Anounced.
Greetings all bloggers,
It is now March, Spring appears to have sprung (we shall wait and see.) If anyone out there is getting an 'itchy green thumb', check out the local area vendors for agricultural products or produce as there is lots of choices.
Congratulations to all the local athletes that won medals at the "B.C. Winter Games." Kudos to all the athletes who participated as well. As I am reminded of Mr. Boris Becker who once said "I love the winning, I can take the losing, but most of all I love to play." Of course, a heartfelt "Thank-You" to all the volunteers, without whose time and work, would not have made the event possible.
Re: The association's A.G.M. will be held on the evening 4th of April, at 7pm (until 9pm.) The venue is (tentatively) scheduled to be "Silver Star Elementary School". Don't forget the $5 membership/renewal fee for all individuals. All are welcome.
Happy Easter to everyone and if anything arises we will blog it. Comments on these or other local community subjects are welcome.
